Hot Air Balloon Safari Voucher

Sun City

Activity Description

Join us on a once in a lifetime experience! We have Hot Air Balloon Safaris launching from the centre of Pilanesberg National Park.
Guests are collected early morning by a registered field guide, in an open safari vehicle from their respective hotels at Sun City Resort or lodges in the Pilanesberg area. Day visitors can be collected from Bakubung Gate. The transfer through the park takes approximately an hour as the balloon launch site is situated in the center of the Pilanesberg National Park. At the launch site the guests will be met by the pilot and crew, who will proceed to give a briefing. Guests will then embark in a 1,2 metre high basket and commence on an unforgettable experience that lasts approximately 45 minutes to an hour. This will undoubtedly be the finest way of viewing the inhabitants of the Pilanesberg National Park. On landing, guests will be served with sparkling wine and orange juice in celebration of the flight. The field guide will then convey the guests through the Pilanesberg National Park to the Wallow bush venue, where a full English breakfast will be enjoyed. Each guest will receive a first flight certificate signed by the Pilot. On completion of breakfast, guests will be returned to their respective hotels. The total duration of this activity is approximately ±5 hours.

VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE NOTE! This activity is extremely weather dependent and a minimum of 4 people is required for the flight to take place. It is advisable that guests book 2 or 3 consecutive mornings as a backup plan.

We enjoy it a lot... The staff is so helpful and friendly. Recomend it to everyone - MARA


Excellent Balloon ride over Pilanesberg, a different way to get an excellent view of the sunrise, animals and scenery. The team were fantastic from the guys setting everything up and packing away to the pilot. We even had a couple of informative mini safaris going to and from the balloon. All rounded off with a glass of fizz and a good breakfast, I will and have already recommended to others. Thank You !! - Gary


Fabulous flight. Saw lots of game and had an amazing time. Great champagne post flight and breakfast at Bakubang. Would recommend . - Lynda


Thank you for an awesome morning from start to finish. We were lucky to be in a small group, a very intimate experience. All the staff were exceptionally friendly, helpful and there to make the experience special. Explanations were given on all workings and we definitely felt in safe and very experienced hands!! Not once did we feel there was any rush whatsoever on the contrary, in fact the drive back for breakfast lasted far longer than expected as we saw fantastic game not to be rushed past. All round really an amazing experience- thank you Mark and your great team!! - Nelson-pal#249
